YONEX has added a few new innovations to the frame, including M40X material to the neck and Vibration Dampening Mesh to the grip for a cleaner feel, even though the specifications are essentially the same. The Liner Tech Grommet and String System is also designed to lessen string friction and provide a more accommodating feel. These racquets have a long history with our playtesters, and they were happy with the improvement. They felt that the YONEX EZONE 100 had a soft, DR-like feel to it, which was a nice comeback. The playtesters gushed about the mix of power and control, easy depth, and superb manoeuvrability of the simple-to-use racquet, which excelled from every part of the court. All in all, the adaptable YONEX EZONE 100 is a must-try for intermediate to experienced players of all ages and playing preferences.
